We Are One

17Apr

If I were to tell you that you are Ishwar — God — you would not believe it, because your ridiculous idea of God is some old man with a white beard, watching you from an armchair in heaven! You say to yourselves, “How can I, a lowly human, be God Himself?” You are afraid of the very idea that you are God! But it is a fact. It is your ignorance of that knowledge — the false impression of the mind that you are humans — which prevents you from experiencing that you are God…. Every one of you is God, but you just do not know it! (Meher Prabhu—Lord Meher, Volumes Three – Four, 1925-32; Vol. 3, 789)
